*

Data are expressed as weighted odds ratio (95% confidence interval).

§

The reference for sleep duration patterns in the logistic regression was children who slept 11-hour persistently.

Unadjusted odds ratio (95% CI) without controlling for potentially confounding factors.

Adjusted odds ratio (95% CI) while controlling for sex of the child, maternal immigrant status, low parental education, young mother age, inadequate income, low birth weight, breastfeeding status, naptime at 29 months of age, hyperactivity-impulsivity and inattention at 17 months of age.
